What Is Explore Feed On Instagram Based On?

Instagram makes recommendations to help you discover new accounts and content. The Explore feed, Accounts You May Like, Suggested Posts and Reels are the different ways Instagram recommends accounts and content for you.

As per the Instagram FAQ, these recommendations are automatically selected based on a variety of factors, including:

• Instagram accounts you follow

• Photos and videos you like on Instagram
• Who you're connected to on Instagram

For example, if you interact with restaurants and bookstores on Instagram, they may recommend content about food, recipes, books, or reading. Basically, the Instagram Explore feed is heavily influenced by your interactions, just like the order of the Followers list on Instagram.
